Examples of normal usage, debug usage, debugging single or all
16
Note the danger of using this program, since you might lock
17
yourself out of your system without any means of entering the root
18
file system password. This is, however, very unlikely considering
19
the fallback to getpass(3).
22
Explaining text on what you can read
25
** [#A] Man page: man8/password-request.8mandos
27
Document short options
29
State that this command is not meant to be invoked directly, but
30
is run as a plugin from mandos-client(8) and only run in the
31
initrd environment, not the real system.
38
Note that it does *not* currently use cryptsource or crypttarget.
40
Describe the key files and the key ring files. Also note that
41
they should normally have been automatically created.
44
Examples of normal usage, debug usage, debugging by connecting
48
Update from mandos.xml
49
** [#B] Temporarily lower kernel log level
50
for less printouts during sucessfull boot.
4
** header files/symbols tally
5
** check exit codes of all system calls
52
** use strsep instead of strtok?
53
** Do not depend on GnuPG key rings on disk
54
This would mean creating new GnuPG key rings with GPGME by
55
importing the key files from scratch on every program start.
56
** Keydir move: /etc/mandos -> /etc/keys/mandos
57
Must create in preinst if not pre-depending on cryptsetup
60
** [#A] Man page: man8/password-prompt.8mandos
62
Document short options
64
Note that this is more or less a simple getpass(3) wrapper, even
65
though actual use of getpass(3) is not guaranteed.
68
Document use of "cryptsource" and "crypttarget".
72
Examples of normal usage, debug usage, with a prefix, etc.
74
Not much to do here but it is noteworthy to state the danger of
75
not having a fallback option.
77
Refer to mandos-client(8mandos) and password-request(8mandos)
78
and also, perhaps, to cryptsetup(8)?
